High Holiday Family Services

Mishkan Torah is proud to continue its tradition of offering a religious program for children ages 5 - 12 this year again under the able direction of our principal, Bret Goldstein. The program runs from 10:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. on the first day of Rosh Hashanah and on Yom Kippur. Tickets are free, but it is necessary to register. This can be done by contacting us by phone, regular mail, or by using this High Holiday Family Services request form. Anyone with questions or who would like more information should send an email to ChildrensEd@MishkanTorah.org .

A few items to note:

A light snack will be provided. The time of the snack will revolve around the story time with the Rabbi on the bimah.

Children will not be excused from Family Services classrooms without parental consent. This ensures that they are adequately supervised at all times.

The program lasts from 10 AM to 1 PM. Arriving promptly for the beginning of Family Services will help us to provide a more involved, participatory, and focused program.

The Rosh Hashanah program concludes with a walk to Greenbelt Lake for Tashlich.

High Holiday Family Service tickets may be requested at the same time as tickets for the adult services.

Room for Young Children

Mishkan Torah does not provide babysitting for the High Holidays. There will, however, be a classroom with toys available for young children supervised by their parents another responsible adult. The classroom will be available on both days of Rosh Hashannah and on Yom Kippur from 10:00 A.M. to 1:30 P.M. A light snack will be provided in coordination with the Family Services on the first day of Rosh Hashanah and on Yom Kippur. To ensure that we have sufficient food, please register by phone, regular mail or by using this online request form.

Yizkor Memorial Book for Members

The Yom Kippur Yizkor Memorial Book is a tradition at Mishkan Torah. We pay tribute to our dear departed by recalling their names at this time. This service is only available to members of Mishkan Torah. We do not charge for this service, but it is a fitting tradition on this occasion to make a donation to the synagogue.

We will not automatically include the names from last year's book unless members return the form that was sent to them or fill out this online form for the Yizkor Memorial Book. Names will not be read aloud unless you explicitly indicate this on the form. Those who have perpetuated the memory of their loved one by means of a memorial plaque do not need to submit a form. Anyone with questions should send an email to Yizkor@MishkanTorah.org .

New Machzorim

We hope you will find out new mahzorim, Lev Shalem, a meaningful addition to the High Holiday Services. Your donations in memory of or in honor of someone or some group will help offset the cost of these new books.
